Chapter 656 The Last 2 People

Inner City of Konoha Village, Nara Family:

Looking at Temari dressed up in Sand Village costume in front of her, Nara Yoshino opened her mouth into an O shape.

Shikamaru scratched his cheek, feeling a bit troubled.

Nara Yoshino looked at her son Shikamaru, and then at her husband Shikaku.

Nara Shikaku synchronized his movements with his son, then sighed and took a step forward, saying, “Let me explain.

This way, this way, this way..."

Nara Yoshino looked at his son with shining eyes, and couldn't help but slap his son to the ground beside him: "Well done, son!"

Temari looked at Shikamaru in confusion as he was slapped away.

Nara Yoshino came over and held Temari's hand, saying repeatedly: "Okay, okay! You can stay at my house as long as you want. When are you and Shikamaru going to have the wedding banquet? Don't worry about the cost. Although our family is not rich, we can still host a luxurious party! It's been hard for you to leave the Sand Village, my dear child. Come on, come on, sit down, sit down, your father! Hurry up and wash the vegetables and boil water! Are you hungry? Do you want to take a shower first? You must be very tired, right? Don't worry, it's okay. If you have any problems, just tell your auntie and she will definitely take care of it for you!"

Temari looked at Nara Yoshino in front of her, with an extremely embarrassed look on her face...

How can she accept this?

Nara Shikaku sighed, held down his wife who was a little too excited, and then half-pushed and half-pulled Nara Yoshino back to his room.

When they were about to enter the room, Nara Shikaku poked his head out and said, "Shikamaru, go help Temari make the bed and show her around the house. Your mother and I are going shopping today, so we won't be back today."

Nara Shikamaru, who was called aside, stood up, dusted off his butt, and nodded: "It's really troublesome, but I will fix it."

Nara Shikaku nodded, then quickly left with his wife.

After the two left, Temari breathed a sigh of relief.

then……

Then, looking at the empty house with only herself and Nara Shikamaru, a blush slowly crept up Temari's face.

"Well, that's really troublesome. Never mind. I'll take you to see the vacant rooms first. I have a lot of empty rooms at home. Where do you want to stay?"

As he spoke, Nara Shikamaru took Temari into the backyard.

Nara Shikamaru's home is a Japanese-style villa with a yard. Before the Nara clan was completely integrated into the inner city of Konoha Village, Nara Shikamaru's grandfather was ready to take their family to settle in the inner city.

Later, when other members of the clan saw this, they followed suit. Decades ago, when the inner city of Konoha Village was not so developed, the Nara clan bought most of the houses on this street.

Now, compared to other families who live in high-rise buildings in the center of the inner city of Konoha Village, the people of the Nara clan are very happy living in villas.

Well, this place is located in the suburbs, so although the infrastructure is complete, if there are people from the Nara clan working in the Hokage Building, they will find it difficult to go to work every day.

After all, whether you drive yourself or take the bus or subway, you will face traffic jams.

At the beginning, when there were not many people in the inner city of Konoha Village, the bus and subway were already being built. Now...

It can only be said that it is barely enough. The total population of Konoha Village, including the inner city and the outer city, is more than 10 million. This population is actually more than the population of many cities in previous lives.

Although it is not as big as the total population of the super first-tier cities in his previous life, Youya is already very satisfied.

Now, Youya no longer has such an urgent population demand.

For Youya, a city with a total population of 10 million is undoubtedly the best.

But if there are more, that's not a problem hahaha~

……

While Nara Shikamaru was showing Temari the room, Yuya was holding two photos and was a little hesitant.

"Click"

The door unlocked and Tsunade walked into the house from outside with a bag of vegetables in her hand.

"Hey, you're back?" Tsunade complained to Yuya while changing her shoes, "Why didn't you send me a message? I only bought food for myself."

You Ya sighed: "No more eating, no appetite."

Tsunade was slightly stunned, put the food she bought on the table, walked to the sofa and got close to Youya, looked at the two photos in Youya's hand and asked puzzledly: "What's wrong? Why are you so sad?"

Yuya sighed, "It's not yet about the next Hokage."

Tsunade understood, "Hmm, so, these two kids are your final candidates for the next Hokage?"

Youya nodded: "Yeah."

Tsunade looked at the photo of Uchiha Shisui and Hyuga Hinata and said with her chin touched: "They are both from the ninja clan..."

Youya shook his head: "After all, Konoha Village was built on the foundation of the Ninja Clan. The Ninja Clan has at least three more generations of accumulation than ordinary people. It takes at least three generations for ordinary people to catch up with the Ninja Clan. This is just to catch up with the current Ninja Clan. No one dares to imagine how far the Ninja Clan will develop after three generations."

Tsunade smiled and looked at Yuya and said, "So you didn't try to disband the ninja clan? Why are you still so distressed?"

Youya shook his head: "I am not worried about the future of Konoha Village. What I am really worried about is the ruling plan of these two children."

Tsunade became interested: "Are these two children not capable enough?"

You Ya stroked his beard and shook his head: "No, judging from the situation in the past two years, it is definitely enough.

only……"

"only?"

"It's just that Shisui tends to be conservative, and while Hinata is conservative, she also knows how to target other villages."

Tsunade shook her head: "I don't understand."

You Ya thought for a moment and said, "For example, if the Hidden Cloud Village sends someone to our Konoha Village as an undercover agent..."

Tsunade's eyes widened: "What?! The Hidden Cloud Village is so presumptuous?!"

You Ya looked at his wife speechlessly and sighed helplessly: "For example, for example..."

"Oh, oh, keep going."

You Ya smiled helplessly.

In fact, each of the five major villages has its own spies and undercover agents, but they see through each other but don't reveal it.

Forget it, it’s better not to let Tsunade worry about this kind of thing.

Youya continued, "The Hidden Cloud Village arranged an undercover agent on our side and then the undercover agent was caught. If it was Shisui, he would have punished the undercover agent and then questioned the Hidden Cloud Village.

Hinata will be more radical, not only punishing them, but also asking the Hidden Cloud Village to give an explanation."

Tsunade looked at him in confusion, "Isn't this a good idea?"

Youya sighed helplessly. This was just an analogy, meaning that Shisui was more mature and experienced in doing things, while Hinata was more radical. For example, she deliberately set a trap in the flood control plan given to Rasa in the Sand Village. If Rasa adopted it, all the flood control efforts would be in vain.

The problem is that Luo Sha is not a fool. He is a fool. The advisor of Sand Village, old lady Chiyo, is not a fool either. This kind of thing of setting traps for others will not have a good effect.

As for stopping water, the plan given for this water control is a standard one.

To put it simply, just copy the Sand Village's previous water control plan and throw it to Rasa.

If you ask whether it can be cured, the answer is definitely yes. However, according to Zhishui's plan, some dams on the Luosha side will have to be demolished and rebuilt.

Youya talked about it with Shisui. It's not that Shisui didn't know how to completely eradicate the hidden danger, but Shisui said: He is not from the Sand Village, so why should he try his best to help the Sand Village control the flood?

This idea is fine, but the kid from the Shimura family couldn't see this. He really helped sincerely when asked to help. People who didn't know him would think he was from the Sand Village...

The reason why Neji was eliminated was that he thought of this, but kept his own ideas and sent over a plan that was neither good nor bad.

This is one level worse than Shisui and Hinata.

You can either be like Shisui and come up with a plan that the other party cannot accept but is indeed usable, or you can be like Hinata and lay traps in the plan.

If you give a conventional solution, the people in the Sand Village will not have any other ideas except thinking that you are not very capable.

Of course this doesn't mean that Neji is not smart. Having made it to the candidate list now, there are no fools anymore.

It's just that the level of thinking is one level lower.

Just this one level difference is enough for Youya to defeat Ningci.

Then the problem is coming...

Hinata and Shisui...

Who should Yuya choose to be the next Hokage?

This is what is worrying Youya.

Tsunade was watching from the side. Seeing Yuya's headache, Tsunade thought for a moment and said to relieve Yuya's worries: "Why not just announce these two names and let the villagers of Konoha Village choose for themselves?"

You Ya was stunned for a moment, then he touched his chin...

hissing...

This method...

It seems to be possible!

The more You Ya thought about it, the brighter his eyes became.

He picked up Tsunade and kissed her hard on her smooth cheek: "You are worthy of being my wife! You are so smart!"

After saying that, You Ya hurriedly put on his coat, picked up the Hokage cloak, and ran outside...

Tsunade quickly called out to Yuya, "Are you coming back for dinner tonight?!"

You Ya waved his hands repeatedly: "I don't want to eat anymore! No need to save any food for me!"

As he spoke, You Ya disappeared in a flash.

Tsunade pouted a little unhappily, then couldn't help but chuckle.

Looking at the two photos that Yuya threw on the table, Tsunade fell into thought.

The boy from the Uchiha family and the little girl from the Hyuga family...

Well, if I had to choose, I wouldn’t know who to choose.

But it doesn't matter, as long as I can catch the position of Hokage steadily, that's enough.

Tsunade thought happily, supporting her head with her hands.

……

On the other hand, Youya has already called Nara Shikaku and asked him to call him over.

Nara Shikaku, who was accompanying his wife shopping, apologized to his wife helplessly and went to call for help.

Not long after, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Nara Shikaya and other older people were called to the conference room by Youya.

You Ya quickly explained the current situation.

The head of the Shimura clan was the first to express his dissatisfaction: "Why do you have to choose between the Hyuga and Uchiha people? Our boy is also on the list of candidates!"

Youya then told the story about the Shimura clan's candidate's operations in the Sand Village.

Chief Shimura fell silent.

This kid from his family...

This is too honest...

If he were to take power, the benefits that originally belonged to the Shimura clan might be given to others.

With that in mind, let's let others do it.

Patriarch Shimura had no objection, and the others had even less objection.

You Ya then proposed a public election system.

That is, the villagers in the inner city of Konoha Village will hold three rounds of referendums, and the votes after the three rounds will be added up. The person with the most votes in the two rounds will be elected as the next Hokage.

Hinata Hiashi and Uchiha Fugaku had no objection to this proposal.

This time the matter has been settled.

Youya looked at the people around him, all of whom were the remnants of the ninja system.

it's fine.

Before the next Hokage takes office...

He will definitely take these old problems away with him.

……

Soon, the election for the Fourth Hokage was publicized in various places in the inner city of Konoha Village.

In order to prevent some villagers in the inner city of Konoha Village from playing with their mobile phones or watching TV, Youya specially had banners hung on every street.

The Hokage election affects everyone's life. It will be held once at the end of this year, once in the middle of next year, and once at the end of next year, for a total of three elections. If possible, it would be best if everyone in the village could come and vote.

In this kind of election, it is very likely that operations such as vote buying and fake votes will occur.

Then a third party is needed to supervise.

Who is the best candidate for this third party?

From Yuya's personal perspective, he wanted the Anbu to come.

Although he trusted Uchiha Jing Yuya, he was a member of the Uchiha clan.

Some people may have opinions.

The same goes for Minato Namikaze. He is Hinata's father-in-law, and some people will definitely be unhappy with him supervising.

Then the range of choices is smaller.

Sarutobi Hiruzen?

Yuya went to find Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sarutobi Hiruzen did not refuse, but just raised a new question.

For example, it would be fine if the Sarutobi clan was responsible once, but if they were asked to be responsible three times... would anyone gossip?

Youya patted his head.

This is really a problem...

Then we have to find the other two forces.

As for the second force, Youya let the Nara clan take charge without even thinking about it.

It is indeed impossible for a member of this clan to become Hokage, but they have never made any mistakes when working for the Hokage.

It can be said that the Nara clan’s way of dealing with the world is very simple.

Pay loyalty to the Hokage, be loyal to whoever is the Hokage.

This way of dealing with things basically means that as long as Konoha Village exists, the Nara clan will be fine.

Although Nara Shikamaru was removed from the list of candidates, the people of the Nara clan were not surprised at all.

The Nara clan is not fit to be Hokage.

Then there is only one last election left.

Who will supervise this last election?

You Ya thought about it for a long time but couldn't think of a better force.

Everyone else is more or less involved with Hinata or Shisui's backers...

Then I'm afraid...

He had to supervise this final round personally.

Never mind, I’ll just be busy for this last time.

Finally, when you are done with your work, you can step down and let things go.

……

So, at the end of the 69th year of Konoha, the first election for Hokage candidates was held in the inner city of Konoha Village.

Uchiha Shisui leads with a large ticket.

If we use a ratio, the ratio of Shisui to Hinata is probably:

7: 3.
